My generation will play a large part in the future of America. As teenagers and children right now we will soon grow up to do many things that will keep our country moving forward and progressing in new technologies and finding new medicines. Our generation will be the ones that control the stock market prices in whether they rise or fall. We will soon be the people that are walking the sidewalks and crossing busy intersection in the big cities. We will be the people that are taking care of the sick and wounded and finding cures for sicknesses that were thought to be untreatable. We are the next generation of loving mothers and fathers that will soon be the ones that are consoling or setting examples for the next generation that will take over after us. We will soon be the infrastructure that will keep cities running smoothly without problems. We will soon be the firefighters that are saving people from burning buildings or disaster. The generation will be the paramedics that are always there in any situation when you need them, like during football games when someone gets hurt, when there are survivors from natural disasters, during a time of any crisis. We will the part of America’s growing economy. We will be the police officers that will enforce the rules and keep everything in order. We will be the helping hand of others. We will be the shoulder to lean on when someone is down. Our generation will be the ones to hold and love you. Ever since we were kids w have thought we were just the students of America’s system. Now it is getting close to where we will be the ones controlling and running things everywhere. We will be the future for going to greener projects and helping save our society. We will be the ones to discover new technologies that will help save lives or make things easier for people. The technologies will seem like wonders that no one would ever think to make thirty years before. We will be the military to protect America when...

What makes America the great country that it is? Why, for over two hundred years, have people from all over the globe come to America to seek freedom and a better life? The United States Constitution is arguably the most influential and important document in the history of our country. The Constitution grants us the freedom of speech, the right to bear arms, and the freedom of the press. As the Founding Fathers rebelliously signed the Constitution, they were unaware that it would become the structure of the United States. This being said, they built this nation on a foundation of freedom and equality intending to secure liberty for themselves and their descendents, who are the people of today.
From the first Ten Amendments written, the most fundamental one was and still is the First Amendment. It guarantees the citizens of America the freedom of speech. For a good government, it is the people that need to voice an opinion to help with decisions and laws for the country. Without our freedom of speech we cannot express our thoughts and ideas freely and openly. Once our freedom to speak our mind is gone, we begin to lose everything that makes us who we are. Freedom of speech has always been a very important right to all Americans, but we must realize that by losing that right we open ourselves up to losing all the other rights and freedom most of us take...

...rule, some make an attempt to set up a government in which the people ruled themselves. This form of government is called a democracy, or “rule of the people.” History has also revealed through the Greeks and the French Revolution, that a democracy that gives complete power to the people, “absolute democracy”, is nothing more than a short prelude to tyranny.
Democracy is a unique type of government, and the purpose of this essay is to illustrate the strengths and weaknesses that a democratic government provides. I will detail that many components of this type of society are both strengths and weakness as each component has beneficial aspects as well as unavoidable pitfalls.
A democracy is a government by the people, in which the power is vested in the people themselves. The people then elect representatives who conduct their power in a free electoral system. The Declaration of Independence, which says that all men are created equal, was written on the premise of a democracy.
According to John Locke, who wrote The Social Contract, before acknowledging that an individual is part of a specific government format, such as a democracy, one must understand that being an individual in society means you personally agree to partake in a social contract, which is basically an outline for the rules, standards, and conduct of that society. But what makes this a democracy...

Microblogging – the new voice of democracy in Ukraine
All people desire to live in open, democratic society. How can it be measured? Liberal democracy can be characterized by fair, free, and competitive elections between multiple distinct political parties, a separation of powers into different branches of government, the rule of law in everyday life as part of an open society, and the equal protection of human rights, civil rights, civil liberties, and political freedoms for all persons. Unfortunately, Ukrainian modern history is marked more with struggle for open society then with its real implementing. On the other hand, new technologies can stay on the people’s side in this informational battle with authority. Probably, government has badly recognized the real strength of Internet and the variety of its services. For my point of view, one of the greatest gifts of latest years for activists all over the world is microblogs – personal journals. I’m sure that microblogging is new powerful instrument in the battle for freedom of speech and democracy in Ukraine.
First of all, Ukraine is regarded by European community as a country with very poor freedom of speech and low level of democracy. Over the last few years our press and media have completely lost their independence. All articles or TV-programs on political or social issues are no longer fair and...

Voices Essay
An aphorism is an original thought, spoken or written in a laconic (concise) and memorable form (Bartholomae). My first impression of aphorisms was that they were a bunch of sentences that had meaning to them. As I did more and more research on aphorisms, I came to the conclusion that you can use an aphorism as a form of inspiration in your everyday life. People use aphorisms every day and don’t even realize it. Some examples are “Do unto other as you would have them do unto you “and “He who laughs last, laughs first”. Those are some aphorisms that we say to people every day not thinking that those statements are aphorism. In this essay, I will write about Antonio Porchia’s aphorism which inspires one and others in our everyday life.
Antonio Porchia (1885-1968) was born in Conflentli Italy, where he lived until 1902. His book “Voices” was one of the first books about aphorisms. Its first publication was in a small left-wing newspaper in, La Fragua (The Forge). The collection of aphorisms attracted a little attention until 1949 when Roger Callus translated Porchia’s work into French. As an author, Voices is Porchia’s only published work, and it was eventually translated into English by W.S. Merwin in 1969. Out of 600 aphorisms, he selected 250 since the published addition in 1943 (Batholomae).
When I read Porchia’s aphorisms, I saw them as uncompleted...

Democracy is a government form, which is the citizen should have a decision to vote their leader directly for their own country or elect the leader for the other problems. Democracy can develop it, if the majority and the minority party or the association willing works together.

With democracy form, the one elected leader will work as maximum as possible for the citizens. Than the citizens can see and make a decision about what the elected leader have done to the country and also they have elected the right or wrong leader.
Democracy is based on the concept, that everybody in the world is the same, no matter what they are a president or a king. In democracy also have no different between how people look like. For example: White and black, lower class and middle class. Furthermore, not everybody have an equal physically or mentally. The important thing, democracy is all human being have equality.
In democracy have an important concept. The first concept is all of the citizens that living in one country, that should be equal, which have an idea and an opinion than issues to the public. The important thing, while elect the...

...Today, most of the countries in the world are democracies. Knowing what is a democracy is really important, especially for those who live in a democracy. It allows you to understand what is the rule that the government plays in the society and know what are your rights and duties under a democratic administration. This essay will seek to define Democracy, the meaning of the word, the system and the history, and describe two of the most famous democracies: Direct democracy and Representative democracy.
Democracy is a form of government where people have power to participate in the government. The word “democracy” comes from Greek and means dēmos 'the people' + -kratia 'power, rule'. According to Oxford dictionary, democracy is a “a system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives: a system of parliamentary democracy.” Democracy principles are: All citizens are equal—they have equal rights and duties. The rules are applied equally and fairly to all and not just a few. The majority rules but the rights of the minority and absent members are protected. Citizens have the right to know what is going on within the government. Politicians and leaders are elected through the process of election. In this process, any individual or group...

5.the common people of a community as distinguished from anyprivileged class; the common people with respect to theirpolitical power.
Democracy consists of four basic elements:
I want to begin with an overview of what democracy is. We can think of democracy as a system of government with four key elements:
1. A political system for choosing and replacing the government through free and fair elections.
2. The active participation of the people, as citizens, in politics and civic life.
3. Protection of the human rights of all citizens.
4. A rule of law, in which the laws and procedures apply equally to all citizens.
I want to talk about each of these four elements of what democracy is. Then I will talk about the obligations and requirements of citizens in a democracy.
Then I will conclude by talking about the obligations that we, the international community, have to the people of Iraq as you seek to build the first true democracy in the Arab world.
